Generic sysadmin. Hack coder. Jack of all trades, master of some.
Please Note:
I expect you to read any reference material I link to in my answers. If the answer to your question is contained in said reference material and the reference source is not likely to disappear I will probably not cut and paste it onto SF unless it's really cool/interesting/obscure.
In return I promise not to link anyone to goatse or tubgirl
I expect you to think for yourself and do a little thinking (and mayhaps even some work) to solve your problems. If you aren't capable of this, please exit the profession via the door on your left.
In return I promise to do my best to aim you in the right direction, and to clarify any points you have trouble with

Registering SIP phone (X-Lite) to asterisk server (asteriskNow) (in other words, I won't personally mod-hammer this question, but I'm also not going to jump in and save it if the community closes it. I might take a stab at answering it though if I have time. I will however be aggressively policing further commentary on the subject of topicality, closure, or voting on this question. Please take such discussion to Meta) |

Registering SIP phone (X-Lite) to asterisk server (asteriskNow) The question of whether or not a CS student is an "IT Professional" is really a subject to be discussed on Meta. Generally speaking though, school projects/assignments are considered off-topic for Server Fault. The inherent problem then becomes "There's really no other site in the network with the kind of knowledge required to answer this question" -- what we do about that is also a topic to discuss on Meta. |

linux + how to identify if file is pointed by link/s @ott-- 100TB of files can checked very fast too if they're big files (of course if they're all 1B files you've got the opposite situation: Checking 100 trillion files would certainly take a long time :-) |

Move files to another directory which are older than a date Bear in mind that mtime is Modification time (which sounds like what you probably want -- most of the time it is). If these logs are read/referred to often you might want to use -atime (last access time). |

Dashboard KPI Application (java/open source) First of all, the downvote is automatic when a question is closed as off-topic. Second, just because there are other off-topic questions on this site doesn't make them magically on-topic -- our FAQ is pretty clear on this point. If you would like to discuss this further please open a discussion on Meta |

Secure file transfer in linux without SSH? Welcome to Server Fault. We prefer answers here to actually have some content (see meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/8231/…). An answer that is just a link to another site ceases to be useful if the link breaks. Please consider updating your answer to contain enough information to stand on its own, without the linked resource. |

how to intercept(not only capture) outgoing packets from TCP programs(or specifically TCP stack)? @user138126 You are still not articulating an actual practical problem that you are trying to solve. You want to do something, but you are not telling us WHY. WHY is important - it is the difference between the answer being "Don't do that, it's ridiculously stupid and there's no reason for it." and "You can do X to achieve your goal." (Right now I'm leaning toward the first option -- absent a good reason what you're asking to do is pretty insane...) |

How can I set up the most manual sort of failover possible? Can you edit your question to tell us more about your architecture and what you're looking to "fail over"? (Just dealing with a DB server failure? Handling application node failures? Dealing with one of your two ISPs going away?) |
